I wrote a book! Eternity Diffused by Mariah Blanchard

 Have you heard the good news? I wrote a book!  You wake up with the realization that you have aged 30 years, AI now controls your daily schedule, and speaking about the past, no matter how recent, is considered to be highly taboo. And your husband and daughter appear to be perfectly content with the state of the world. What do you do? Theda, a joyous twenty-two year-old, is in love with life. Her job in the recycling factory is idyllic, she lives with her best friend, and she has no plans in sight for her future because the future simply doesn't exist. Her mother, Katherine, on the other hand, would disagree. Katherine can't quite put her finger on it, but something doesn't feel right. Life...just seems to be lacking something ...Maybe it's because her brightest years are behind her? But it is almost impossible to know because she can't access any information from before last week.

An Ode for Distant Lovebirds

Mariah Loves Earth, Species Pigeon/Emotion Love, 2024


Stars that shimmer and gleam

Bring to me a single dream.

A face not seen for quite some time

Shines bright in my yearning mind.


Beloved hearts that once were one

Unravel like a bow undone.

Two satin ends a yard apart,

Are from one ribbon,

That led to one start.


My beloved’s stare my heart doth seek

But at that thought I do grow weak.

A whimper, a quiver, a thought, a dream

A lonely tear to remain with me

My heart has flown to a distant land

And there it remains in my beloved’s hand.

  1. Mariah, your emotional prose evokes a deep longing and a sense of separation. It seems you're yearning for someone dear to you, someone whose absence leaves a void in your heart. The imagery of stars and dreams adds a touch of wistful beauty to your emotions and language. If you'd like to share more or discuss further, feel free.

  2. This is amazing.

    Some feeling guided me to this. If this is Whom I think it is.. if MRU and hammocks ring any bells.. It would be meaningful for me to have the opportunity to discuss something with you that is really rather important to me.
